Genesis Eighteen

Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”Genesis 18:14

God's promise of children to Abraham and Sarah continues to be re-stated, even though it seems increasingly unlikely. Sarah laughs because it seems impossible. The angels remind her that nothing is too hard for God.

I believe that nothing is too hard for God. So why do I find it so hard to trust that on a daily basis? God's word makes our circumstances laughable, not the other way around. When it looks impossible, I should be laughing, because impossible isn't a word in God's vocabulary.
